“Nothing happened. The air bag light went on. I kept driving it to see if it would go out. Took the car to local garage and after a $350. Charge I drove it home and light was off. Next day light was back on. Took it back and was told the spring mechanism in air bag wasn't working. I took it to a hyundai garage and they quoted a price of 1600 plus labor to fix it. After looking it up on the internet it seems hyundais have had many problems with air bags. Why not any recalls? I love my car but $2000. To fix a 2004 with 78000 miles seems like a lot of money. Should I fix it? *tr”Owner report · Air Bags · Aug 2014

“My airbag warning light comes on and will not go out. I took my car to capitol heights hyundai dealer in maryland and was told that my passenger airbag did not have suspension. The cost to repair this will be $3400.00. I believe that this should be a recall on the airbag on the passenger side. Was also told that there is a part to the airbag that is a recall but of course my code did not fall within this repair. There must be a better way to handle this.”Owner report · Air Bags · Apr 2014

“I was driving from virginia to new york on route 17 to route 81. I exited to get to a gas station. While turning left from a four-lane road into the gas station, my vehicle made a crashing sound and stopped in the middle of on-coming traffic. It felt like we hit something big. I could not move the car. We had it towed to a garage, where we learned the cv axle had snapped. They also had to replace rs spindle and rs ball joint because they had rusted out. There was cosmetic damage done to body when the axle broke and the car went down hard. *tr”Owner report · Suspension · Mar 2014
